Understanding, mural by Robert Lewis Reid. Sec...Image via WikipediaLove relationships run into problem areas. At some point in time your relationship no matter how good, will have issues. These matters can slowly be worked out.

However, some couples have larger disputes such as broken trust or a lack of zeal for one another. These issues are much more difficult to work through.

If you are searching for a way to mend your broken relationship, you must proceed with caution.

Make sure that you take these 5 necessary steps and begin to mend your broken love relationship.

Identify the Problem

When you don't know what the problem is, how can you fix it? So, the first tip in fixing a broken relationship is to identify the cause of the problem. Both partners need to have a complete understanding of the state of the relationship. If there was a specific event that caused the issue, both of you should understand how or why the issue surfaced. If it was a series of events, you must clearly define the issues and the cause. This will require communication!

Let Your Partner Know How You Feel

The second tip when mending your romantic relationship is to be honest and open about how you feel. A relationship can only work if there is substantial communication. You need to be open about how you feel. Be careful what you say and your tone of voice. Be calm, don't shout and just reason with your partner. No accusations or threats of any kind, this will just make matters worse. Reason involves discussing who, what, why, where, when and how of the problem and the possible solution. You don't have to sugar coat your feelings, just let them be known in a tactful manner.

Listen, you should let the other person in this relationship know how you really feel. Be as descriptive and tactful as you can. Are you angry? Confused? Sorry? Frantic? Disappointed? The more descriptive (not destructive or demanding) you can be, the more your partner will understand where you're coming from.

Remember, it is vital that you show some sensitivity here, otherwise you'll have a huge argument instead of a rational conversation.

Can You Afford to Pay Attention?

Be sure to pay attention to how they feel as well. It's a two way street, so listen to how descriptive they are about their feelings as well. Ask penetrating and specific questions to better understand how they feel. By doing so you will comprehend the root of the primary problem. Missing the root of the problem makes a permanent solution unlikely. If you have ever weeded a garden, then you know what I mean.

Give Small Gifts

Small gifts can be a perfect way to start to mend a broken relationship. While it will not fix everything, it will show that you care, and that you are thinking of them.

Small Meaningful Dates

Going on small, inexpensive but fun dates can also be beneficial. Having fun together is the perfect way to mend broken hearts and a broken relationship. Laughter really is the best medicine for what ales you.

It is essential to make sure that you both fully understand the issue at hand. IF you are working on repairing a broken relationship, you must be on the same page as your partner. Be open about how you feel about the situation, and what you think can help it. Remember who, what, why, where, when and how? And be sure to pay attention to what he/she has to say as well.

When you are certain that both of you are on the same frequency, pay attention to the little things. Small gifts, small dates and especially gifts or dates with sincere meaning are an excellent way to mend a relationship. You could remind yourselves why you are in the relationship. These 5 tips will help you achieve your goal to fix a broken relationship.
